How large is the archive of sessions? Did Len save everything, and does Spivey records have all of it?
I'd really like to hear more Sonny Boy Williamson tracks if there are any. I seem to remember reading that some of the tapes were supplied by Willie Dixon, and not recorded in New York, so maybe that's why there is just the one.
The other thing I'd like to have see the light of day would be any tracks by the Even Dozen Jug band; of course I don't know if Spivey ever got to record them before Izzy Young and Elektra spirited them away, just that they were offered the chance to record....at least that's what the liner notes on the CD reissue of the Elektra album says!
